This week we are rebroadcasting our interview with Maya Khosla which originally aired in November 2022.What can the forest teach us of grief, of joy, of humanity? This week, poet and scientist Maya Khosla invites listeners into the forests of Northern California to find deep reverence for the power of biodiversity. Maya's expertise on wildfires shines through this deep and well-informed conversation as she and Ayana share a love for the forest and deep-seated awe for the complexity of forest life. Maya introduces listeners to the science behind forest fires and urges us to see fire as not simply “destructive,” but rather as one of the many cycles of earth. From practices of cultural burning to current studies on post-fire diversity, the creative and regenerative power of the forest cannot be overlooked.Maya Khosla is a wildlife biologist and writer. She served as Sonoma County Poet Laureate (2018-2020), bringing Sonoma's communities together through poetry gatherings and field walks after the 2017 fires. Sonoma County Conservation Council (SCCC) selected her as one of the 2020 Environmentalists of the Year. Her poetry books include “All the Fires of Wind and Light” from Sixteen Rivers Press (2020 PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Literary Award), “Keel Bone” from Bear Star Press (Dorothy Brunsman Poetry Prize), and “Web of Water: Life in Redwood Creek”. Her writing has been featured in documentary films including “Village of Dust, City of Water,” about the water crises in rural India.Music by Lake Mary, Forest Veil, and Bird By Snow.

Kevin Fedarko's book, the Emerald Mile, takes readers on the journey of the fastest ride through the Grand Canyon in a dory named the Emerald Mile. Fedarko's book dives into the backstory of the dam, the characters, and even the record-breaking journey, and yet leaves one question remaining: what is the backstory of the dory's namesake? In this 1st of 2 Emerald Mile episodes, the stories of Fedarko and Dave Van De Mark demonstrate the impact that words and imagery make when applied to places like the Emerald Mile in California's Redwood National and State Parks. SPONSORSDown River Raftopia April 6Down River EquipmentInstagramFacebook Rocky Talkie5 Watt Radio, WaterproofDiscount Code 10% off:  RIVERRADIUS10InstagramFacebookYoutube GUESTSKevin FedarkoInstagramFacebookDave Van De MarkVicki OzakiLeonel Arguello RESOURCESThe Emerald MileOutside Magazine Kevin Fedarko ArchivesWhen & How The Emerald Mile Came To Be A Critical Part of the Original Redwood National ParkLocal Photography Legend Who Helped Establish Redwood National and State Parks Sets Out to Complete His Life's WorkActivist and photographer DaveVandeMark treks to the upper reaches of Redwood Creek to  document how its conservation has impacted its ecological condition THE RIVER RADIUSWebsiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastSpotifyLink Tree

Follow the aromatic pines on a trip down Redwood Creek or take a hot air balloon ride over the sprawling vineyards of Napa Valley. Breathe the salty air of Monterey Bay, bask in the glory of Yosemite Falls, and delight in the intoxicating scent of Camarillo orange groves. Hear the gentle crash of the waves on the shores of Malibu, and be soothed by the warm serenity of a Pacific Coast twilight.

In 1968, Congress created Redwood National Park—or at least part of it. Nicknamed "the Worm," the park extended only one-half mile on either side of Redwood Creek.  It was apparent that this was not enough and work began on a park expansion. Of course, expansion was opposed by local logging companies. In an attempt to blunt the expansion efforts, logging companies ran crews—sometimes 24 hours a day—in an attempt to cut the remaining old-growth in the Redwood Creek watershed, with the rationale that if logged, it would be less attractive to incorporate into the Redwood National Park. That plan failed. In 1978, Congress expanded Redwood National Park and took in many of the cut over lands, with only a fifth of the new land. This decade of intense logging left a major impact on Redwood Creek. Large clearcuts, poorly cut roads, landslides and major floods sent a massive wave of sediment streaming into Redwood Creek. The National Park Service has spent the past 40 odd years cleaning up this mess and studying how Redwood Creek is (and is not) recovering. Two expert geomorphologists with decades of experience studying Redwood Creek join Gang Green to talk about their research. Mary Ann Madej is the author of the recent report, Redwood Creek Watershed Studies: Summary of Geomorphic Research at Redwood National Park and Vicki Ozaki is a staff geologist at Redwood National Park. For more info:Redwood Creek Watershed Studies: Summary of Geomorphic Research at Redwood National ParkExpanding Redwood National Park in 1978: A Critical Act to Save the Park from Virtual ObliterationSupport the show (https://www.humboldtbaykeeper.org/get-involved/donate)

In this episode, Daniel, Tommy, and Chris wonder, if Star Wars Galaxy's Edge will be dumbed down. Also, Tommy is going to the Oggie Boogie Bash and we search the internet for some tips. Oggie Boogie Bash Tips Enter Disney California Adventure 3 hours before the event, and do attractions at your leisure. Prioritize Guardians of the Galaxy – Monsters After Dark and the Cars Land “Haul-O-Ween” seasonal attraction overlays if you want some Halloween fun. If Halloween character meet & greets are a priority, do the ones around Carthay Circle starting 1 hour before the official Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween Party start time. Line up for Kingdom Hearts, Disney Afternoon, or Classic Disney Friends meet & greets immediately before the official party start time. Finish character meet & greets thirty minutes before the Frightfully Fun Parade steps off. Grab a parade spot near Paradise Garden Park for a low crowds location or facing Carthay Circle Theater for a photogenic spot. After the Frightfully Fun Parade, rush to the next high-priority meet & greet you missed or Villains Grove Trail at Redwood Creek. Do the Treat Trails, prioritizing Oogie Boogie, Mad Hatter, and Dr. Facilier (all of whom are in Hollywood Land). Grab a front zone viewing spot for World of Color – Villainous by entering near Golden Zephyr roughly 30 minutes before the second showing.

“Part of the experience of Muir Woods [National Monument] is that you are in a primeval forest-- that you’re really in a place where time takes a different pace.” Did you know that not many bugs enjoy eating the wood of a coastal redwood? What is the impact of climate change on our ancient, glorious coastal redwood trees? I had the chance to learn so much about the giant coastal redwood trees of Muir Woods National Monument with ranger Cassie Anderson. Cassie Anderson is currently serving as a supervisory park ranger at Muir Woods National Monument, and has devoted much of her life to our national parks. Cassie helps reiterate why these redwood trees are so phenomenal-- what makes them so resilient and beautiful, and how their many stewards throughout the centuries, from the natives of Mexico to William and Elizabeth Kent and Teddy Roosevelt, helped to protect them. Cassie also helps us to understand improvements made to Muir Woods to help its million visitors per year enjoy the park without destroying the fragile ecosystem. It is interesting to explore this ecosystem, from the scarcity of birds to the thriving banana slug population. Banana slugs love our redwoods! We explore different hikes to take, including those on the main trail and on others, such as the Canopy View Loop and the Hillside Trail. Also, be sure to check the website and ask at the visitor center for various ranger-led programs for the family such as a guided sunrise hike. Cassie and I discuss not only what makes these redwoods absolutely stunning to see in person,  but also the significance of protecting these marvelous trees, especially in light of the Earth’s changing climate.   Our Discussion Journey: Cassie describes the background of Muir Woods (2:29) Cassie’s journey into the National Park Service through volunteerism (4:29) An overview of Muir Woods National Monument (5:31) What constitutes an “old growth forest?” (7:21) Where can I find old growth coastal redwoods?

You may not think of salmon when visiting Muir Woods, but it's home to endangered Coho Salmon. Meet the volunteers working to restore Redwood Creek and bring back salmon habitat after decades of human influence.
